Glad I'm not the only one Jamberie. Though I don't feel guilty at all as it was the only way she could be fed at the time. We do the very best for our children.

Sadly I couldn't as I had a rather prem baby. She has grown into a wonderful, caring and intelligent person so I am thrilled.
Naturally breast is best if it can be managed. I never dreamt that I would have a prem baby and not be able to breast feed.
I know how you feel Cookie, I never dreamed I'd have a premmie either & formula was the best option for her at the time too :)

My DD was prem and formula feed.Like your DD she is one lovely young woman Cookie.
I agree Jamberie we do the best thing for our baby :)

I was devastated when by first baby was wasting away on breast milk. Eventually at 12 weeks we found a formula that he could digest and I was comfortable weaning myself off the pump. My second child was prem as well but I had more support and success. At 20 months he is still a boobies boy but at least no longer through the night.

I've just found another 60 mls of breast milk in the freezer. It's been there a year, might throw it into a loaf of bread one day.

I breast fed my two for 8 mths each as that was the natural cut off for me.. Ds started biting and with dd i literally didnt have anywhere enough milk so had to stop..never thought of using it in food at the time.. I say do whatever works for you..
